This versatile arrangement is
a great showcase for your bass
players and also provides an
optional harp feature. The
famous opening solo can be
played in 1st position or
thumb position and as a bass
solo or soli with an optional
timpani part. While mostly in
1st position, this piece
offers great opportunities for
all instruments to explore
higher positions. Students
will love the simplicity of
Mahler?s haunting melody,
while being challenged to
maintain a slow, steady tempo.
